So I noticed Degan's right eye looking a little bit puffy last night, but didn't really think much of it. It just looked like he was tired, which is to be expected because friday night Tanner and I didn't get to bed until 5am... But today it's a little puffier, kind of pink on his eyelids, and it was a little bit watery. His eyeball looks normal--not pink or anything unusual that I could see, and his left eye is normal, too. I also noticed his right nostril seems to be a little bit runny--nothing extreme, just barely runny.

I'm not sure if I should just assume its allergies because I would expect both eyes to be affected it if was, right?

Anyway I'm just wondering how long you guys would wait before giving the vet a call (assuming it doesn't get worse of course). I can try to get a picture of it, but since he is so dark it will probably be next to impossible to see.

hmm, I think may be worth a vet visit. *sounds* a bit more then allergies (but then again, allergy reactions are very individual, and I haven't actually seen him.Is it a hard or soft swelling?

I can only please one person per day. Today is not your day, tomorrow doesn't look good either.

It seems to be itchy... He was pawing at it earlier, but like I said his eyeball isn't pink so I don't think it's pink eye. Also it is just 'tears' or whatever you want to call them coming out, no gunky stuff. The swelling seems to be mostly in his bottom lid.

I did look inside his eye as much as he would let me, and nothing seemed unusual. Today it actually is almost completely back to normal so I'm hoping it was just an allergy issue. All of them have been extra itchy and things lately so it would make sense!
